- It's clean-up duty, mopping up after the dishonest, incompetent, and fanatical. Can't imagine why you'd have a problem with that.
Some ground rules before you leave a message
- I am not an admin. I did not delete your page or article, nor did I block you. I may have, at the very most, suggested or urged deletion of pages or articles but I have no power or ability to do so on my own. I'm just an editor.
- This also means, of course, I cannot undelete your page/article, nor unblock you. I can, however, offer you a cookie.
- If you are here to make an argument dependent on arcane or convoluted interpretations of Wikipedia guidelines or rules, note that Wikipedia is not game of nomic nor a court of law. Adherence to common sense and rational argument trumps ruleslawyering, as far as I'm concerned. I've been there, done that, got the t-shirt, thankyouverymuch.
- There is no Rule 4.
- Don't post when drunk. Seriously.
- All communication sent via the "E-mail this user" link is considered public, at my discretion. Reasonable requests for confidentiality will be honored, but the whole "e-mail is sacrosanct and private" argument I do not buy for one solitary second. Do not expect to use that argument as an all-purpose shield.
- Do not assume I'm stupid, especially when arguing for something obviously untrue. I do not respond well to having my intelligence insulted.
- Don't lie to me like I'm Montel Williams. Do I look like Montel Williams? Do I? NO? Then don't lie to me like I'm Montel Williams.
- Especially bogus, hostile, and/or trolling remarks are subject to disemvoweling.
- Please post at the bottom of the page and "sign" your posts using the squiggly things (--~~~~).
- Please extinguish all cigarettes, as this is a No Smoking page.
- Thank you. -- The Management.

- if those users are actually spamming links let me know, I've got tools for monitoring and ensuring that we catch them even if they change usernames. βcommand 02:04, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Please stop posting stale reports to WP:UAA
You have been asked again and again and again, yet you persist in doing it. Posting reports on accounts that haven't edited for three weeks is pointless and useless. Please stop wasting our time. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 08:14, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Managing your talk page
Hi Calton, in regard to this edit you made, no, it's really not acceptable to alter a signed post that way. It gives the impression that you are changing the writing of another editor in such a way as to hold them up to ridicule when future readers come along. And we don't ridicule anyone here, we revert then or block them or ban them or protect pages from them - but we do that to protect the encyclopedia, not because we dislike them. I've removed the relevant section and would ask you to think carefully before restoring it in whatever form. Is it really something you insist on having present on your talk page?

[edit] Tokyo earthquake March 2011
Hi, Calton. It looks like you left the project some months ago, but I'll ask anyway. Are you all right? It would be nice to see a note from you on this page. Bishonen | talk 18:55, 11 March 2011 (UTC).
- I saw your reply on Bishonen's talk page ... good to see ya back Calton, and I hope things get back to normal soon over there. I was impressed by our coverage of the quake and tsunami too, even compared with the news networks. - Dank (push to talk) 03:01, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Well done
Thank you for deleting this - I'm frankly disgusted of the amount of hatred people pour into each other. Keep up the good work. Yours, Zakhalesh (talk) 15:11, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

It's actually {{db-blanked}} (redirect to G7) you want, not {{db-blank}} (redirect to A3). Confusing, isn't it? :) Feezo (Talk) 08:44, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
